About Cindy

My first involvement with Awana was when I was in high school. When my church started Awana, becoming a leader was a natural fit for me. I was impressed with the emphasis on teaching kids doctrinal basics and the gospel. It was exciting to see the students grow as they studied and memorized God's word.

For four summers during High School and College I served as a short term missionary with the Continentals (a Christian music group) as a saxophone player. During those four summers I grew significantly as a Christian and gained valuable ministry experience in many different cultures and settings.

Shortly after graduating from California State University, Hayward, I became the business manager for a hazardous materials compliance service company and worked there for 10 years.

I am a member of Crossroads Church in Turlock and am actively involved in the music ministry and in the High School Awana program. I earned my Citation Award (Awana’s highest achievement) in 2002.

In my spare time I enjoy playing clarinet and saxophone in area bands. I also teach clarinet and saxophone to young musicians.

I am proud “Auntie” to Nathan, Travis, and Josh.
